STAY STRONG LITTLE BROTHER
lyrics by ithaka c.1997
Over here, on this side of the pool
what am I to think, what am I to do?
Been hearing bad news about my little brother
no, not my blood brother --- But he's still my little brother
ten calls this week from the concerned
been learning many things that I didn't want to learn
the story is an old one, no it ain't new
but every time I hear it it leaves a cloud of doom
and this time it's worse, cuz I love the life at stake
so brother quit the pin before it's too late
stay strong little brother
cuz you are loved little brother
as the new kid around, little bro you had it all
brains. Motivation. And calls from keely small
and you could slice a wall, with a blade of glass
with a smooth new style, that was loose and fast
at the rivermouth, back in winter '85
you and T.C., you was the only ones to ride
and wall for wall, you matched his best
"KLING", you STRING-BEAN ... you put him to the test
Rider of the year, but never saw you in no mag
or in a contest heat, with a color on your back
don't throw the gift away, with the light of a match
don't throw the gift away, with the stick of a pin
stay strong little brother
cuz, you are loved little brother
fresh out of V.H.S., (YOU) sarted working on the features
junior editor with the alpine speakers
you was bold, had the humor and the girls all over you
you had the ride, the pad ......IQ, 182
but somewhere down the line, you got off your course
by that old dark ugly evil force
stay strong little brother
cuz, you are loved little brother
all sorts of poisens, flowing through your veins
some say you're crazy, they say you ain't the same
but bro, I know you for at least fifteen years
and though I share many of their fears
I know deep in your soul, you're still the kling
and I'll always be there for you, if you need a hand or wing
stay strong little brother
cuz, you are loved little brother
talls, red room, and the six of clubs
it's the places, it's the people ... and little brother it's the drugs
so come clean, start yourself off new
drop the dope and the bottle ... and the dope and the bottle crew
maybe the end of the earth is upon us
but maybe it ain't and we won't turn to dust
if that's the case, wanna live a long time
little brother won't you join us, got to make up your mind
stay strong little brother
cuz, you are loved little brother
